South Okanagan woman Hester Haynes White writes about the area throughout her life, and often about Susap George, the Syilx man from Nk'mip who helped her family and saved her life. What else do we know about Susap and his many names?
Metis packer and builder Johnny McDougall and his big family set the standard for wild-west adventure in the Okanagan. The Honourable Coutts Marjoribanks of Scotland buys his property and tries to live up to his reputation.
Two women who married the same man, but had lives entirely their own: Lucy Simla, a Syilx Okanagan woman of great spirit and skill, and Florence Loudon Richter, a very young American brought to British Columbia by circumstance.
The most famous early priest in the Okanagan, Father Pandosy, has a wild start in the Oregon Territory. Once he gets to British Columbia, we find out what Chief Sw'ken'cut and his people think of this big man's presence. With thanks to Jordan Coble of the Westbank First Nation for his story.
One of the earliest missionaries in the Okanagan area of British Columbia encounters a powerful high chief--and decides to build a church and eradicate polygamy.
